You don't see me typing a goddam terrorism total here every day, do you?

Maybe I should start. Begin tallying everyone killed by Islamists, insurgents, and other terrorists and posting them here. See how fast THAT adds up. Not the deaths of volunteers fighting for a cause. Unarmed people who died simply because they were deliberately and specifically chosen as victims.

Or maybe I should just start posting pictures here. Over and over again. Lines of dead kids in Underoos. People jumping from buildings. City buses full of body parts. Trains destroyed. Schools burned.

I keep hearing that our battles in Iraq have nothing to do with terror. That Sadr's goons and Zarqawi have nothing to do with terrorism. Fine. Vote for the guy that agrees with you.
